<p>These are the ones who tell you, 'The world is coming to an end in 2012!' Kids don't say that, <em>grown-ups</em> do.</p>
<p>I'm worried about grown-ups who say, 'Read my horoscope! Tell me whether I'll find money tomorrow!' <em>Grown-ups</em> say this, not children.</p>
<p>Children are perfectly happy counting <em>through</em> the number 13. Children are not afraid to walk under ladders.</p>

<p>(The gist of the site: the Bible's claims about God and prayer are decisively wrong; apparent "answers" to prayer are simple coincidence, which we're likely to disproportionately notice; God is imaginary; let's make the most of this one, real life and work towards creating a heaven on earth.)</p>
